Hi,
It means the tcp/ip connection to the telnet client has terminated abnormally.
The reason can be there has been a communication failure between the telnetd process and the telnet client process (the peer) running at the other side of the
tcp connection (very often it is a PC which was hang and powered off).
If you want to investigate the problem you can start inetd with logging turned on: #inetd -l
Then you'll be able to get a client hostname (IP address) from your syslog.log
